لا فَخرَ إِلّا قَد عَلاهُ مُحَمَّدٌ

فَإِذا فَخَرتَ بِهِ فَإِنّي أَشهَدُ

None can boast above Muhammad,

So if you boast of him, I bear witness,

إِن قَد فَخَرتَ وَقَفتَ كُلِّ مُفاخِرٍ

وَإِلَيكَ في الشَرَفِ الرَفيعِ المَقصَدُ

You have truly boasted and surpassed all other boasters,

To you belongs the highest, most noble rank.

وَلَنا دَعائِمُ قَد تَناهى أُوَّلٌ

في المَكرُماتِ جَرى عَلَيها المَولِدُ

We have pillars that begin

With the honored birth,

مَن ذاقَها حاشا النَبِيَّ وَأَهلِهِ

في الأَرضِ غَطغَطَهُ الخَليجُ المُزبِدُ

None has tasted them but the Prophet and his family.

In the land he was immersed in the turbulent sea.

دَع ذا وَرُح بِفِناءِ خَودٍ بَضَّةٍ

مِمّا نَطَقتُ بِهِ وَغَنّى مَعبَدُ

Leave this and go to a cheerful gathering

Of what I have spoken and Maʿbad sang,

مَع فِتيَةٍ تَندى بُطونُ أَكُفِّهِم

جَوداً إِذا هَرَّ الزَمانُ الأَنكَدُ

With young men whose palms overflow

With generosity when times are difficult,

يَتَناوَلونَ سُلافَةً عانِيَّةً

طابَت لِشارِبِها وَطابَ المَقعَدُ

They pass around a cup of wine

That is sweet to its drinker and the place is joyful.
